We were raised differently and our culture would never do this. We believe that people are the guests of the bride and groom. They have given up their time, spent money to be there, AND given a gift to the couple and are there to help them celebrate their wedding. You treat your guests like you would if you invited them into your home, you feed them and do everything that you can to make them feel welcome.No, you're not the only one who wouldn't have a problem with it. It's the bride and grooms day. They can have whatever they want. If they are important to me, I'll do whatever they need to make the day special. That said, I don't have any unreasonable or "snobby" (as someone above called them) people in my life, so I'm sure any requests I would receive are all in good fun. I don't need much of an excuse to buy a new dress, and my family's weddings are always a big hoot.
There is no way that I would ever dictate to someone what they should wear. To me, that is incredibly rude. Would anyone do that in any other situation? Would you say, come over for dinner but make sure that you wear a red dress? Weddings have lost all of their meaning now. They have become a narcissistic, show off popularity contest.
